I've started the build of the Tamiya Shturmovik with the Eduard BigEd PE kit. The cockpit is finished 🙂.

Thanks Eelco and Eric!
The kit is great 🙂. Best fit of any model I have built, so I'm happy. Don't like to sand and putty 😛.
I have put together the fuselage and wings now and it was a breeze. Except for the fact that I forgot to make the cut outs for the flaps in the wings. But a razor saw and some careful cutting solved the problem 🙂. Now I will go to celerate the new year! Cheers!

Thanks Spanjaard and Sören!
I've painted the base camouflage now. I did it freehand this time 🙂, it's alot more fun than masking. Next will be a clear coat and then decals.

You did a great job airbrushing the camouflage freehand Björn! Looking really good mate. You also have a good building pace btw.

This is one of the best freehand paintjobs i've ever seen. Great work! I always produce to much overspray for doing it without masks.

Thank you Spanjaard, Erik, David, Neil, Robert and Stephan for your nice words! I really appreciate them! 🙂
I finished the decaling. It really wasn't that hard as there are so few of them. But I really think they look good! I used Tamiyas Mark Fit Strong for the first time and it was really nice. My previous experience with Tamiya decals has been that they need alot of work and patience, but this time it went like a breeze. Previously I've used Mr.Mark Setter and Softer on Tamiya decals, but this was better.

If anyone knows what the russian text on the fuselage says, please let me know 🙂.

Just love the moment when you've put all decals on painted model and suddenly it looks totally different. Good job!

Björn, exellent job!
Russian text: "Месть за Христенко" - "Revenge for Khristenko" (pilot of the 2nd squadron 566th ShAP, who died in early 1944) and "За Ленинград" - "For Leningrad".
And I see, you lost rudder balancer?

Björn Svedberg
Thank you Yury for the translation! 👍
Yes, I broke the balancer off early in the build, but I've saved it, so I can glue it back on when I've done all the weathering. 🙂

Yury
You're welcome!

The Shturmovik is finished! 🙂
The build quality of this kit was really good and I just love Tamiyas clear parts. The BigEd kit for this model wasn't that big. Only cockpit, some exterior parts and the flaps. I also left some of the really small parts in the bag. I must admit that I rushed the build a little and left quite a few seam lines unattended as you can see in the pictures. It's an iconic plane, and I just had to build it 🙂.
Next up, the Mosquito.

Thank you David, Hato, Yury and Stephan!
@Hato, I watched a documentary where they said that the german troops called them "Iron Gustav" but they didn't explain why. I can get the "Iron", but why Gustav?

He looks very nice Björn. I like this plane.
I see on picture 16 between the wings some little gaps. Look at this small thins next time. It is easily fixed.😉

Yury
Hato H., Thanks for the clarifications! One more question: is it possible that the nickname "Eiserner Gustav" comes from the title of the book of the German writer Hans Fallada (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Fallada)?
11 January 2018, 16:17
Björn Svedberg
Thank you Eelco! 🙂
Yes, I know. I rushed the build and made some mistakes along the way. The next one will be better, hopefully😉
